TVARCers:
The attached PDF table contains comments by TVARCers who reviewed their DX logging software for me. I supplemented it with those DX logging programs reviewed in E-Ham that had over 60+ reviews with positive ratings of at least 4 out of 5 points.
So, what’s the consensus? Well, there was no overwhelming “winner”. I think that many of the TVARCers have had their logging programs for a number of years and the barrier to change was high enough that they just continued using it. I know that’s the way I am with my WriteLog contesting program. I know that N1MM may be better in some ways but W-L’s like a pair of comfortable shoes to me - it works for me.
Here's what I plan to do: I’ll go with DXLabs since it appears to have a high level of support, is full-featured and is free (not the most important factor). My one concern is that all who commented on it talk about the steep learning curve. However, it comes with a number of stand-alone modules so I intend to become proficient with one before proceeding with the next. Eat the elephant a spoonful at a time.
If you can't read the attached PDF, let me know and I'll send you the PDF attachment directly to your email address.
Thanks for those that responded. It’s appreciated.
